Question

I have the following code which goes to the next available record to process.

        Dim ds As New DataSet
        Dim strListType As String = Request.QueryString("ListType")
        Dim strStatusFilter As String = ""
        Select Case strListType
            Case "newmember"
                strStatusFilter = "Status_Ind in (1,4,6,8) and IsMember_Ind=1"
            Case "nonmember"
                strStatusFilter = "Status_Ind in (1,4,6,8) and IsMember_Ind=1"
            End Select

        ds = objClass.List(0, 10, "Due_Dt, Joined_Date ASC", "", strStatusFilter)

       'go to the next record
        If ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count > 0 Then
            Server.Transfer("Request.aspx?Request_ID=" & ds.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("Request_ID") & "&ListType=" & strListType)
        Else
            Server.Transfer("List.aspx?Status=NewMember")
        End If

ObjClass.List is a method which is implemented to run a view and filter out data. I am ordering data on two columns due_dt and joined_dt.

My problem is that it goes to the same record everytime if I didnt update my due date. I just want to go to the next record if am not updating it. Ho can I have the behaviour I want? what changes I can make?

Thanks

The following statement returns the first row in the table:

ds.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("Request_ID")

To get the second row, you could use this statement:

ds.Tables(0).Rows(1).Item("Request_ID")

To loop through all the rows, you could do something like this:

For Each row As DataRow in ds.Tables(0).Rows
    Dim requestId As Object = row.Item("Request_ID")
